Ah so black people just don't know how to behave themselves? You don't see a problem with that being your rebuttal to people saying you're on the wrong side of history huh

That’s not what he said, and you know it, but you don’t care.

Here's me saying that you can't claim causation of these statistics on the basis of race.

Here's him saying it isn't because of their race, it's because of the behavior of said race (black people)

You know full well that isn’t what I said. If you look at crime statistics, a larger percentage of crime is committed by black people than say, asian people. I said that stupid games win stupid prizes. If a person, regardless of race, income level, or any other category, commits a crime, they will wind up in trouble with the law. What mountains of data has shown is that illegitimacy rates in a group are a primary contributing factor to a much higher rate of dropping out, poverty, crime, and incarceration. The illegitimacy rate in the black community is much higher than in other communities, and therefore, they have a disproportionate negative outcome. It isn’t what history has done to us, it is what we have done to ourselves. That is what needs to be addressed. We like to rise up about the outcome, but it isn’t PC to rise up about the source of the problem. You can’t suggest that people not have kids out of wedlock, that crime is to be avoided and shamed, that authority figures are to be respected, or that people in poor communities should have access to charter schools or given vouchers to give them school choices, rather than remain trapped in horrible government run schools where most students fail to meet the basic minimum standard. When black people like Thomas Sowell, Walter Williams, Larry Elder, or Candace Owens try to point out these things they are shouted down as being an Uncle Tom, or some other derogatory term by the majority of the people in their community who they are trying to help. These aren’t problems exclusive to one group of people. They get the same results in other groups as well, but when one group has a much higher occurrence of the primary contributing factor, that group will have a much higher negative outcome as well.

Try Glenn Loury, John McHorter, and Coleman Hughes. I love listening to these guys.

I simply recapped exactly what you said. Sorry you don’t like it broken down.

You’ve pointed out the correlation between single parenting and crime. You’ve compared crime rates by race.

These are the “knowns”. Now tell me why these facts exist.
